SG200-08 - Not Mirroring Broadcasts

NOYB2NOYB

Level 1

For Example:

     Non broadcast ARP requests ARE seen on mirror.
     ARP replies ARE seen on mirror.
     Broadcast ARP requests however are NOT seen on mirror.

Same with other broadcasts. They are NOT seen on mirror.

Model: SG200-08

Firmware Version: 1.0.6.2

Configuration:

g3 mirror of g8 (both tx & rx).

g6 tagged member vlan 99; untagged member vlan 1, pvid 1
g8 untagged member vlan 99, pvid 99

Scenario:

Client connected to g6 tagged vlan 99 sends out a broadcast.
Vlan 99 untagged member g8 transmits the broadcast. But it is not seen at the g3 mirror of g8.

However if g6 is mirrored to g3 instead, then the broadcast, received from client, ingress, is seen.

Once again it appears this Cisco SG200-08 mirroring is not properly/fully implemented.  Especially regarding traffic egress.

After a Power Cycle reboot is has started mirroring the broadcast packets.

How pathetic.
